I understand what you mean - it is hard to get started on the healing (which starts with the pain) because we so desperately, often, want to avoid the pain, fear or confusion. But as you've witnessed with yourself and others, it is exactly where the healing begins. It is indeed moving even as it is challenging and often heart-rending. As a child development professional, I also know that all growth must begin with a conflict, some task that has to be overcome, in order for growth and development to occur -- no growth occurs without an essential conflict that must be resolved. So, with that thought, I am interested in helping people understand that the "negative emotions" are opportunities to enlightenment and resolution. Be well - Sending you love and light! Thanks for sharing your thoughts and experience here. Hi Lance – thanks for stopping by!

Is it because I can feel vulnerable in these moments? Or weak? Or showing too much emotion? Yet - in those moments when I've moved beyond these (in my head) fears - and been fully expressive to the moment - you are so right - there is healing that begins from this. I recently experienced this at a healing service I was doing...listening to others share very challenging moments...and then also seeing that healing process start right there. So, so moving.... Anyway, this is a wonderful message you have shared...thank you. Hi Kendra,

So very true for me as an incest survivor. The healing didn't start until I started feeling the pain of the abuse. I stuffed it with food and denial for many years. Learning to love myself and to feel all of my emotions helped me to begin healing. Thanks for the reminder. “It is through the pain that the healing begins.”
